The Story in Brief
The NTA will release provisional answer keys for UGC NET, CSIR NET, and ICAR AIEEA (PG) and AICE (PhD) 2026 on August 16. Candidates can download the keys from nta.ac.in and challenge incorrect answers within a specified window. The UGC NET exam was held on six days in June and July, with a retest on July 5. CSIR NET was conducted on July 17 and 18. The final key will be prepared after subject experts review all challenges.
The Indian Opinion
The NTA’s announcement is routine, but every answer-key season brings the same complaints: delayed releases, unresponsive helplines, and a challenge process that feels opaque to most candidates. This cycle, the real test is not the exam itself but whether the agency can publish the final key within the promised timeline and issue refunds for valid objections promptly. Will the objection window stay open long enough for a student in a small town to get their submission verified?
